6 وَأَبْنَاءُ حَامٍ: كُوشٌ وَمِصْرَايِمُ وَفُوطُ وَكَنْعَانُ. 7 وَأَبْنَاءُ كُوشٍ: سَبَا، وَحَوِيلَةُ، وَسَبْتَةُ وَرَعْمَةُ وَسَبْتَكَا. وَأَبْنَاءُ رَعْمَةَ: سَبَا وَدَدَانُ. 8 وَأَنْجَبَ كُوْشُ نِمْرُودَ الَّذِي مَا لَبِثَ أَنْ أَصْبَحَ عَاتِياً فِي الأَرْضِ. 9 كَانَ صَيَّاداً عَاتِياً أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ، لِذَلِكَ يُقَالُ: «كَنِمْرُودَ جَبَّارُّ صَيْدٍ أَمَامَ الرَّبِّ». 10 وَقَدْ تَكَوَّنَتْ مَمْلَكَتُهُ أَوَّلَ الأَمْرِ مِنْ بَابِلَ وَأَرَكَ وَأَكَّدَ وَكَلْنَةَ فِي أَرْضِ شِنْعَارَ. 11 وَمِنْ تِلْكَ الأَرْضِ خَرَجَ أَشُّورُ وَبَنَى مُدُنَ نِينَوَى وَرَحُبُوتَ عَيْرَ وَكَالَحَ، 12 وَرَسَنَ الْوَاقِعَةَ بَيْنَ نِينَوَى وَكَالَحَ. وَهِيَ الْمَدِينَةُ الْكَبِيرَةُ. 13 وَمِنْ مِصْرَايِمَ تَحَدَّرَتْ هَذِهِ الْقَبَائِلُ: اللُّودِيُّونَ وَالْعَنَامِيُّونَ، وَاللهَابِيُّونَ وَالنَّفْتُوحِيُّونَ 14 وَالْفَتْرُوسِيُّونَ وَالْكَسْلُوحِيُّونَ. وَمِنْهُمْ تَحَدَّرَ الْفِلِسْطِينِيُّونَ وَالْكَفْتُورِيُّونَ. 15 وَأَنْجَبَ كَنْعَانُ صِيدُونَ ابْنَهُ الْبِكْرَ ثُمَّ حِثًّا، 16 وَمِنْهُ تَحَدَّرَتْ قَبَائِلُ الْيَبُوسِيِّينَ وَالأَمُورِيِّينَ وَالْجِرْجَاشِيِّينَ، 17 وَالْحِوِّيِّينَ وَالْعَرْقِيِّينَ وَالسِّينِيِّينَ، 18 وَالأَرْوَادِيِّينَ وَالصَّمَارِيِّينَ وَالْحَمَاتِيِّينَ، وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ انْتَشَرَتِ الْقَبَائِلُ الْكَنْعَانِيَّةُ 19 فِي الأَرَاضِي الْوَاقِعَةِ بَيْنَ صِيدُونَ وَغَزَّةَ مُرُوراً بِجَرَارَ، وَبَيْنَ صِيدُونَ وَلاشَعَ مُرُوراً بِسَدُومَ وَعَمُورَةَ وَأَدْمَةَ وَصَبُويِيمَ. 20 كَانَ هَؤُلاءِ هُمُ الْمُنْحَدِرُونَ مِنْ حَامٍ بِحَسَبِ قَبَائِلِهِمْ وَلُغَاتِهِمْ وَبُلْدَانِهِمْ وَشُعُوبِهِمْ.

21 وَأَنْجَبَ سَامٌ، أَخُو يَافَثَ الأَكْبَرُ، أَبْنَاءً. وَمِنْهُ تَحَدَّرَ جَمِيعُ بَنِي عَابِرَ. 22 أَمَّا أَبْنَاءُ سَامٍ فَهُمْ: عِيلامُ وَأَشُّورُ وَأَرْفَكْشَادُ وَلُودُ وَأَرَامُ 23 وَأَبْنَاءُ أَرَامَ: عُوصُ، وَحُولُ، وَجَاثَرُ وَمَاشُ. 24 وَأَنْجَبَ أَرْفَكْشَادُ شَالَحَ، وَوَلَدَ شَالَحُ عَابِرَ. 25 وَوُلِدَ لِعَابِرَ ابْنَانِ: اسْمُ أَحَدِهِمَا فَالَجُ (وَمَعْنَاهُ انْقِسَامٌ) لأَنَّ أَهْلَ الأَرْضِ انْقَسَمُوا فِي أَيَّامِهِ. وَاسْمُ أَخِيهِ يَقْطَانُ. 26 وَأَنْجَبَ يَقْطَانُ أَلْمُودَادَ وَشَالَفَ وَحَضَرْمَوْتَ وَيَارَحَ، 27 وَهَدُورَامَ وَأُوزَالَ وَدِقْلَةَ، 28 وَعُوبَالَ وَأَبِيمَايِلَ وَشَبَا، 29 وَأُوفِيرَ وَحَوِيلَةَ وَيُوبَابَ. وَهَؤُلاءِ جَمِيعُهُمْ أَبْنَاءُ يَقْطَانَ. 30 وَقَدِ اسْتَوْطَنُوا فِي الأَرَاضِي الْوَاقِعَةِ بَيْنَ مِيشَا وَالتِّلالِ الشَّرْقِيَّةِ مِنْ جَبَلِ سَفَارَ. 31 هَؤُلاءِ هُمُ الْمُنْحَدِرُونَ مِنْ سَامٍ حَسَبَ قَبَائِلِهِمْ وَلُغَاتِهِمْ وَبُلْدَانِهِمْ وَشُعُوبِهِمْ. 32 هَذِهِ هِيَ الْقَبَائِلُ الْمُنْحَدِرَةُ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ نُوحٍ حَسَبَ شُعُوبِهِمْ، وَمِنْهُمُ انْتَشَرَتِ الأُمَمُ فِي الأَرْضِ بَعْدَ الطُّوفَانِ.

New International Version

1 This is the account of Shem, Ham and Japheth, Noah’s sons, who themselves had sons after the flood.

The table of nations

The Japhethites

2 The sons^[1] of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshek and Tiras. 3 The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath and Togarmah. 4 The sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, the Kittites and the Rodanites.^[2] (1أخ 1:7) 5 (From these the maritime peoples spread out into their territories by their clans within their nations, each with its own language.)

The Hamites

6 The sons of Ham: Cush, Egypt, Put and Canaan. 7 The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah and Sabteka. The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan. 8 Cush was the father^[3] of Nimrod, who became a mighty warrior on the earth. 9 He was a mighty hunter before the Lord; that is why it is said, ‘Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the Lord.’ 10 The first centres of his kingdom were Babylon, Uruk, Akkad and Kalneh, in^[4] Shinar.^[5] 11 From that land he went to Assyria, where he built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir,^[6] Calah 12 and Resen, which is between Nineveh and Calah – which is the great city. 13 Egypt was the father of the Ludites, Anamites, Lehabites, Naphtuhites, 14 Pathrusites, Kasluhites (from whom the Philistines came) and Caphtorites. 15 Canaan was the father of Sidon his firstborn,^[7] and of the Hittites, 16 Jebusites, Amorites, Girgashites, 17 Hivites, Arkites, Sinites, 18 Arvadites, Zemarites and Hamathites. (Later the Canaanite clans scattered 19 and the borders of Canaan reached from Sidon towards Gerar as far as Gaza, and then towards Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboyim, as far as Lasha.) 20 These are the sons of Ham by their clans and languages, in their territories and nations.

The Semites

21 Sons were also born to Shem, whose elder brother was^[8] Japheth; Shem was the ancestor of all the sons of Eber. 22 The sons of Shem: Elam, Ashur, Arphaxad, Lud and Aram. 23 The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether and Meshek.^[9] (1أخ 1:17) 24 Arphaxad was the father of^[10] Shelah, and Shelah the father of Eber. 25 Two sons were born to Eber: One was named Peleg,^[11] because in his time the earth was divided; his brother was named Joktan. 26 Joktan was the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah, 27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, 28 Obal, Abimael, Sheba, 29 Ophir, Havilah and Jobab. All these were sons of Joktan. 30 (The region where they lived stretched from Mesha towards Sephar, in the eastern hill country.) 31 These are the sons of Shem by their clans and languages, in their territories and nations. 32 These are the clans of Noah’s sons, according to their lines of descent, within their nations. From these the nations spread out over the earth after the flood.
